A Ray of Hope

A ray of good news from the Frome, despite the very low numbers of salmon running the system this year and the almost complete lack of grilse, one mighty fish was recorded going up stream late in the season, measuring 1.35m on the camera at East Stoke, lets hope he finds his mate waiting for him on some of the new gravels.

ILLEGAL FISHING, POLLUTION AND RIVER BLOCKAGES

If you see any fishing, netting or trapping that is illegal, please don’t tackle it yourself. Also should you find a pollution or evidence of pollution, or find a significant blockage to a river structure such as a bridge, hatch or weir, take location (ideally a grid reference) and brief description of the problem. For all the above contact the Environment Agency on 0800 80 70 60. Then additionally ask for feedback and give a number and/or chairman’s e-mail. This helps improve their response.
